AKG K371

The K371 is a closed-back tuned to a reference target curve and easy to drive at 32 ohms, an enthusiast-tier headphone and a capable choice for mixing where isolation is needed. It hits a balanced, accurate sound without demanding an amp. It won't deliver the wide soundstage of an open-back, and its isolation, while solid, isn't built for the loudest tracking environments.
